Putt-Putt Golf & Movie Night!

This past Friday we took some time to spend as a fivesome. It was long over due. Football season has it's DEFINITE pros, but it can also be very taxing on our family unity. It's just a season of our lives, which requires MANY sacrifices on every single family member in our home, but with all of that said, I wouldn't want Darren and Ty to stop doing it. They love it and it is teaching them great life lessons.

We chose to take the kids to dinner and to putt-putt golf. I didn't spend the evening capturing photos of us trying to get a ball in a hole. Darren and I don't break down and just have fun as much as we probably should. I need to start breaking out the board games on a random Friday night. He and I are both very competitive. I was leading the way or we were tied neck and neck throughout the entire game. I was typically in a 2 point lead. On the 14th hole, Darren fell to the ground after the ball hit the hole, on one swing, and popped out. Putting him another point behind me :)

Instead, I spent the night enjoying my family. When we were through, I had the cashier snap a photo of us. Daddy wound up being the winner in the end, by two points.

Darren and Ty enjoyed the batting cages after we finished our 18 holes.

It was a blessing to be together. I forgot how much I valued it until we finally were able to be together again!

After a very long, hardworking Saturday day, we spent the later part of our evening on the couch together. Sadly, I can honestly say I am not sure this has E-V-E-R happened before. Okay, maybe ONCE, but that's a stretch. Darren and I NEVER watch movies. Our personalities just can't tolerate a 2 hour movie. There's always so much to do. This FELT SO GOOD to be snuggled together on the couch. The photo below was unplanned, but once I saw our feet all together, I knew it would be a special photo to capture. It felt so good, Jax and I fell asleep. LOL! We watched the movie Super 8.

OUR FAMILY MOTTO

Our Blog Readers

MY HUBBY

Darren is a dedicated, faithful, and an involved husband, parent, and worker. He is the best team player I could ask for. He is also a follower of Christ and has the HUGE responsibility of leading our family to the cross. His greatest physical attribute is his smile. He's also more giving than 10 people combined. God has blessed him with the gift of giving. He enjoys tender love from his "wifey", playing with his children, football, and working out. He has more energy than I can understand.

OUR FIRST BORN SON

Tyson, aka "Ty", was the first blessing God gave to us. He is your typical boy, rambunctious with a capital R. He is very smart, goofy, sweet, handsome, and a definite leader. He has been told that he is the spitting image of his daddy. He enjoys spending time with his siblings, playing play-station/ipod, and doing anything relating to all sports, especially football. His favorite place to go on vacation is Myrtle Beach aka “my beach”. He also is learning the importance of obedience and loving the Lord.

OUR ONLY DAUGHTER

Lilah is a twin to her brother Jaxon. She is bubbly and full of laughter. Her personality gives her the rap of being “sweet & sassy”. LOL! Just like her mommy. She's infatuated with her blankie aka “baby” as well as her daddy! She's has a great head of hair, is petite, and extremely fun to dress. Simply ALL GIRL! Some of her favorite things to do are sing, dance, play “mom”, and apply make-up, using her new vanity. I am so glad God blessed me with a little sidekick. The extra estrogen has become more than evident in our home.

OUR LAST BORN

Jaxon is a twin to his sister Lilah. He is well known by his nickname "Jax" or “Jaxey”. He is by far the sweetest kid we have. He is so helpful, so appreciative, so loving, and aims to please. His favorite things are playing with his big brother and sissy, cooking/baking with mommy, and spending time with his buddy Cohen. His current loves are basketball, wrestlers, and the Great Wolf Lodge. There's nothing MORE that I love than his beautiful dimples and tender kissies. He truly is a love bug!!! He’s the he kind of human that would give you the shirt off of his back.
